Kernel Seasons Butter Flavor Popcorn Oil - 13.75oz

WARNING! DO NOT BUY. Extremely unhealthy. This is made with Soybean Oil which is the worst ingredient and returned this before I opened it. Soybean oil can be considered “bad” in certain contexts due to several reasons: 1. High Omega-6 Fatty Acids: Soybean oil contains a high amount of omega-6 fatty acids, which, when consumed in excess, can cause an imbalance in the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. This imbalance has been linked to chronic inflammation and related health issues, such as heart disease, obesity, and autoimmune disorders. 2. Highly Processed: Most commercial soybean oil is highly refined and processed. This can involve chemical solvents like hexane and high heat, which may reduce its nutritional value and produce trans fats. 3. Risk of Trans Fats: During hydrogenation (to make it more stable for cooking), trans fats can form. These are harmful fats linked to heart disease, diabetes, and other health issues. 4. Pesticides and GMOs: A large percentage of soybeans are genetically modified (GMOs) and may be exposed to heavy pesticide use. This raises concerns for those wary of GMOs or pesticide residues. 5. Potential Hormonal Effects: Soy contains phytoestrogens, which mimic estrogen in the body. While the levels in oil are much lower than in whole soy products, some people prefer to avoid soy products altogether for hormonal balance. 6. Oxidative Stress: Soybean oil is prone to oxidation, especially when heated. Oxidized oils can produce harmful free radicals, which may contribute to cellular damage and aging. Moderation and choosing less processed oils (like olive, avocado, or coconut oil) are often recommended as healthier alternatives.

Tastes horrible does not taste like butter at all it has a weird taste

Total waste of money. It’s so completely tasteless that I questioned if I had Covid but no it just has zero taste. My whole family agreed.

It's great if you use it on freshly popped kernels vs the bags. Also, use it along with a tsp of flavocol and you got yourself movie theatre style popcorn.

I have been buying this for years and love it. The trick is do a light layer and then salt and taste it. Don’t add too much of the oil at first.

I tried 2 times. It doesn’t make the popcorn taste like butter. Ugh

LOVE Love love this butter!!

Makes your popcorn taste like it came straight from the movie theater. I suggest using this on top of freshly popped popcorn kernels and not the prebagged popcorn pouches.

The BEST oil if you want that real movie theater like flavor. It’s an oil with the aroma of movie theater popcorn, so you have to use salt and some butter as well. Honestly the bad reviews are probably from people who didn’t use this right. It’s bland on its own, so again, make sure you add salt and butter!

the BEST popcorn oil you can get from the store to make your popcorn taste fresh from the movie theater. Make sure to salt it yourself as this just gives it that movie theater popcorn flavor

We love this butter flavoring for our popcorn!

Horrible, tastes disgusting

Awful! Disgusting!! We’ve never used this before so we thought we’d try it for our movie night popcorn. My husband and I spit out the popcorn because it was so gross.

A little goes a long way. Used it on a popcorn machine, does not add flavor! But it's not super oily when cleaning kettle.

It’s okay…doesn’t taste the greatest or anything like movie theater popcorn

I don’t know what you guys are talking about. This is just oil. It’s gross. If you can find it, get orville redenbachers.

My first time buying this movie butter and I love it it’s definitely a hit for me popcorn tastes exactly like movie popcorn I’m going to purchase at least 2 or three thank you targets it’s a hit 100💯

Our favorite popcorn oil. It doesn't have too salty of a taste, which makes it a great vehicle for all of the different powders they sell to put on popcorn. Personally, I like it + a little kosher salt tossed on my popcorn. We go through a lot of this having an air-popper on our kitchen counter.

Flavor really tastes like the movie theater butter. I really like this Popcorn flavor.

Buttery taste, doesn’t make the popcorn soggy, good price. It taste better than Orville’s and a staple in my house.
